On June 6th we went to two different outdoor festivals being held by some towns just outside of Boise. The first one we went to was the Renaissance Faire in Meridian, Idaho. It had the typical arts and crafts booths along with booths that had kids practicing calligraphy, making play swords out of "water noodles", and booths that demonstrated weaving and making small metal badges.
There was some Celtic dancing, there were mock sword fights, and Mike did the caber toss. (Which is basically where you try to flip an 85 pound pole end over end.) There were also plenty of "ring toss" type games for the little kids. If was pretty fun.
The second festival was in a small town called Star, Idaho. The festival is called "Mule days" but we got there too late to see the mules. oh, well. Mike and I both got to do the rock climbing wall, which I really liked. It was my first time doing anything like that. Ryleigh got to have her picture taken in a tank. I don't think she knew what to think of it all. The rest of the fair was carnival rides and food and craft vendors.
